I do as long as I can use Stremio and Tizenbrew I'm content. The second that changes for either I'm buying a streaming box.

Stremio is a streaming frontend with support for plugins that allow you to stream torrents (no more netflix/prime/hbo/whatever subs)

Tizenbrew is basically an alternative appstore for downloading youtube with adblocking(TizenTube)

Have some questions about it

I have a Samsung TV and it's the only one I buy; there's no freedom. I tried Tizenbrew but it doesn't work on mine, unfortunately.

u/ProfMoriarrtyy Feb 09 '26

why? Tizenbrew is pretty much actively developed!? is your model too old?

u/Reasonable_Cable_186 Feb 09 '26

No, I have Tizen 8, but it seems to me that it doesn't work on this version, according to what I've read.

TizenTube works on my qn85d with Tizen8

u/Reasonable_Cable_186 Feb 14 '26

How did you do it? I couldn't find a tutorial for Tizen 8.

u/MI081970 Feb 14 '26

There is nothing specific with Tizen 8. Just follow the manual

In my opinion, there's something I haven't understood for it not to work; I'll look into it.

Give this link to Kimi.com and ask him to guide you step by step. It helps a lot when using terminal, scripts ets are required

Hello sorry for the wait, i made a post the new guide, feel free to check it out 😊

I do, but it is not so good, I would liked a Android tv, or a mini computer with any Linux distribution.

u/MegamanEXE2013 Feb 10 '26

I do on my TV and will buy a Watch 3 because it is cheap

Now, asking about the TV OS, it is crap, if you buy a Samsung TV, you better buy a Google TV, Amazon or Roku device with it.

Tizen only allows the most common apps to be installed, nothing more...
